Cobb crank pulley install?

Hey guys!I'm about to install my new cobb pulley and was wondering if anyone had any tips or advice on the matter.It's on an 02' wrx.It seems pretty straight forward.The only real concern is getting the belt tension correct.Is the perrin install video on hspn identical even though its on an sti?Any help would be much appreciated!!!Thanks.

It's blue and pretty.Why not?I did my research.I have not heard of any negative effects that have been proven.Any thing that will help my poor little bugeye get moving faster is ok by me.

Make sure you actually seat the pulley in correctly.

Yeah it looks like a 20 minute job.But I'm sure It will turn into 1-2 hrs depending on beer intake and murphys law.Thanks for the replies.All I really need is some encouragement.Sorry,I wasn't hugged enough as a child.

If you have a friend to help you it only takes five minutes. When you remove the pulley bolt, have your friend step on the brake and have the tranny in first gear. It took me and Alex 5 mins. and it was done.
